Berg: Lulu Suite - Wozzeck Three Experts / Levine, The MET Orchestra

Berg's "Three Pieces" take the most nightmarish sections of Mahler's Sixth Symphony as their starting point and explore the outermost bound of musical terror. They are not easy to listen to by any means, but if you're a fan of horror movie soundtracks, then you'll find this an experience not to be missed. None of the remaining music on this disc is quite so frightening, but it also won't exactly leave you humming the tunes. Berg takes some work, but it's such good music nevertheless that you may find it worth your time. James Levine knows and loves these pieces, and he has an orchestra that plays them with the confidence born of long familiarity. --David Hurwitz
